Summary

Allergy is defined as a specific abnormal and excessive reaction of the immune system to exposed allergen . This reaction is reproducible with each new exposure allergen . A recent study by The European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology" (EAACI) estimates that 30% of the population suffers from allergic rhinitis and/or conjunctivitis, 20% of children suffer from asthma, and 8% of the population suffers from food allergies in Europe, with a clear increase in prevalence. Allergenic immunotherapy (AIT) remains a corner stone in the treatment of allergic diseases. It involves administering an increasing dose of allergens to induce immunological tolerance. The efficacy and safety of ITA have already been demonstrated. However, patient response is highly heterogeneous. This findinf illustrates the value of biomarkers in the selection of patients, enabling prediction of response to ITA and follow-up.
